9.30.13- Christine

Ok, gang, let's talk for a second about deadlifts. Here's the thing: when I'm in the process of doing a deadlift, I think they are awesome. Mostly because I can lift massive amounts so I feel like a badass. The problem? Afterward I get really sore in my lower back, and I have no idea who to stretch it out. I always just have to squirm in my chair a little bit for a few days, and it is super annoying.

So, of course, today was a deadlift heavy day.

First, we did 12 sets of deadlifts at 235 pounds, 2 reps every 45 seconds.

Then we got our hero on with Christine.

In honor of the workout, here is a picture of Christine Taylor, 
who stole my heart on both Arrested Development and Hey Dude. 


Christine is supposed to be...

3 sets for time of:
- 500 meter row
- 12 deadlifts of my body weight (I did 235, rather than my own body weight.)
- 21 box jumps up to 24 inches (I did step ups to 18 inches.)

I finished this workout up in 12:54.

  1. If your back hurts you may be doing it wrong and could really give yourself a problem. Can you ask one of the pros to help you?
